Quote:Whaaaat? I really doubt NFL teams are listening to media when they are scheming defensively. I doubt coaches have much time to listen to that swill. I'm pretty sure coaches are going to be relying on game film rather than what some talking head on ESPN regurgitates.

There are only so many elite WRs in the game that teams truly go out of their way to scheme for including Antonio Brown, Dez Bryant, Julio Jones, Calvin Johnson, AJ Green, and Demaryius Thomas. These guys go in the first couple rounds in fantasy football and are never not double covered. ARob at least at present is flying under the radar as teams don't exactly have him at this elite level, and until they do that's a bit of an advantage for fantasy purposes because he'll likely get at least solid points every single week. These elite guys will typically get you much more points, but you have to draft them early and there's always a risk that on a given week they'll be totally shut down by a team determined to take the guy out.

A good example from a couple years ago when I played FF was Kendal Wright. Now the guy would never get me 20-something points, but I could count on about 10 to 15 points every single week since teams never went out of their way to account for him <strong>despite him usually being their top WR as Britt was constantly injured. Of course this could change if ARob puts up enough game tape and teams start scheming to take him out, but at least now that's not the case. </strong>
